Cost of radiotherapy and chemotherapy for esophageal cancer

summary

Because of diet, there are more and more people suffering from esophageal cancer, but we all know that the symptoms of cancer in the early stage are not obvious, so it brings great difficulty to the treatment. Moreover, China is one of the high incidence areas of esophageal cancer, so it is better for us to know more about the clinical manifestations or treatment methods of esophageal cancer. Now let me share with you the cost of radiotherapy and chemotherapy for esophageal cancer surgery.

Cost of radiotherapy and chemotherapy for esophageal cancer

First, the treatment of esophageal cancer includes surgery, radiotherapy, drug therapy, etc. In principle, surgical treatment should be the first choice, but the diagnosis must be clear, the scope of lesions is limited, there is no distant metastasis, and there is no surgical contraindication. The cost is about 10000-15000 yuan, and the hospital stay is 2 weeks. Postoperative adjuvant chemotherapy and / or radiotherapy can be used according to the situation. The length of hospital stay and the cost are different. It will take several months for more, and the cost will be about 20000 yuan.

Second: the cost of each cancer hospital is not the same, generally higher than other places. You can ask them which hospital they want to live in, and the price may be more accurate. It's not good to be specific. The key depends on the patient's own constitution and the selected area, hospital, treatment and other factors. It's suggested to consult the local hospital and take relevant treatment measures according to the patient's condition to avoid causing more harm.

Third: the general cost of esophageal cancer radiotherapy is based on the patient's condition. The cost of treatment is not a single one. Generally, it needs to be determined by combining the examination results and the recovery of the patient's own constitution. The treatment has been included in the scope of national medical insurance. It can be reimbursed by medical insurance. Because of different regions and hospitals, the costs are certainly not the same, but there will not be too much difference. All costs are charged after being formulated by the state, and there will be no arbitrary charges.

matters needing attention

No matter how, in the treatment of diseases, we must choose regular professional medical institutions.

At the same time, we should always pay attention to the emotional changes of patients, so as to reduce their psychological pressure as much as possible.
